Versioning

Proper versioning is crucial for maintaining and updating mobile applications effectively. It helps in tracking different versions of your app, managing updates, and ensuring compatibility.

iOS Versioning​

iOS apps use CFBundleShortVersionString and CFBundleVersion:

  • CFBundleShortVersionString: The release version number displayed to users.
  • CFBundleVersion: The build number, which identifies an iteration of the app.

Android Versioning​

Android apps use a combination of versionCode and versionName in their build configurations:

  • versionCode: An integer value that represents the version of the application code, which is incremented with every release.
  • versionName: A string value that represents the release version to the user.

This section provides resources and guidelines to understand and manage the versioning system for both iOS and Android platforms.
